Stallions
Whitt's Whippoorwill, Georgian Grande
Whitt is the first Georgian Grande that we've kept for use as a stallion. He is a son of Santana Hosanna (ASB) and Millwood Mercedes (Percheron). With the best of both breeds in his pedigree, Whitt's beauty, confirmation, and sound mind are no accident. Whitt has a beautiful head, long neck, good legs, and a short back. Whitt spent three years working on an Amish farm where he was trained to ride and drive. Before being "retired" to the breeding pasture, Whitt was often in a plow or other farm equipment, where he learned to be a perfect gentleman, even working beside mares with no problems.
As the sire of our 2018-2024 foals, Whitt is passing on his beauty and brains. He has put his stamp on his foals, not only in looks, but most importantly, he helps our mares produce a good natured, intelligent, and easy-to-work-with foal. Whitt has thrown a variety of colors - greys, blacks, bays, chestnuts, and even a palomino filly.

Miss Felena Degas, Georgian Grande
Felena was a well-broke registered IGGHR mare, who was the perfect all-around mare. She was a daughter of Mountainview's Look Now (a Mountainview's Oh Heavenly Day son) and Miss Jane Degas. She was a full-sister to Rueben. She is pictured above with Corrie - a full sister to Selena, Temo, and Kricket. Her foals include Ruby Rose, Guadelupe and Special (pictured below).
Miss Jane Degas - PercheronJane was the dam of Felena and Rueben and she was everything you could want in a working mare. She was intelligent - we found out she knew her name soon after we bought her, level-headed, and good to work with. Jane maintained her dapple grey color until she was in her teens and rarely ever acted like she was just "that old grey mare."

Awesome's foals at WRF include Dapper Dan (Jeannie), Melina (Selena), Guadelupe (Felena), Special (Felena), Bojangles, and Levi (Babe).
